Yoon Choi Eliminated in 3rd Place ($576,099)
Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Yoon Choi shoved from the small blind for his final 5,500,000 and was called by Yanting Jiang to be at risk for his tournament life.
Yoon Choi: Q♠J♠
Yanting Jiang: A♠7♥
It was a fair fight as they went to a runout, but the flop was all Jiang when it fanned out 6♠4♥A♥ to give Jiang a pair of aces, and all but a lock on the hand.
The 5♥ turn was all she wrote for Choi as the 2♥ completed the board and upgraded Jiang to a flush to score the elimination.
Choi earned $576,099 for his second-place finish.
